  1. 0:00hello guys in today's video I'll be
  2. 0:02showing you guys how to make a sword
  3. 0:04slash chocolate so let's get right into
  4. 0:06it alright so the first thing we're
  5. 0:07going to do is press a and delete
  6. 0:09everything
  7. 0:11now you want to add a circle
  8. 0:15and scale the circle up a little bit
  9. 0:17now go into edit mode
  10. 0:20and press e to extrude and S to scale in
  11. 0:24and stop it a little bit closer to the
  12. 0:27center and move this up just a little
  13. 0:30bit
  14. 0:31now what you want to do is select all
  15. 0:33and subdivide
  16. 0:35uh you need to subdivide a lot depending
  17. 0:38on how much detail you want the more you
  18. 0:40still divide the more details you're
  19. 0:41gonna get wow but the less you sort of
  20. 0:44divide the easier it will run so I'll
  21. 0:46probably still divide it like I'll do
  22. 0:49like three times
  23. 0:51and so that's what you do select all go
  24. 0:53to vertex edit and add a group and
  25. 0:57assign
  26. 0:58now you want to go to the modifiers tab
  27. 1:00add modifier vertex will edit select the
  28. 1:04vertex group you created earlier go to
  29. 1:07fall off change it from line to custom
  30. 1:09curve
  31. 1:11switch this
  32. 1:15go to influence
  33. 1:17new press this thing
  34. 1:20image or movie change up the clouds and
  35. 1:22go back to the modifiers tab add a mask
  36. 1:25modifier select the vertex group and
  37. 1:28take the threshold up a little bit they
  38. 1:30use this smooth
  39. 1:31okay now add modifier add the simple
  40. 1:34deform modifier and change the Z and
  41. 1:37then take it over 360. now you guys can
  42. 1:39see it moves a little look so what I'm
  43. 1:42gonna do is I'm gonna go back into edit
  44. 1:44mode and I'm gonna set it by one more
  45. 1:46time
  46. 1:47now it's more like it I'm gonna actually
  47. 1:49take threshold up a little bit and that
  48. 1:53helps as well okay so now we're going to
  49. 1:56do is we need to add the fishing touches
  50. 1:58so we could just stick with this but
  51. 2:00this isn't really a source blast this is
  52. 2:01more of a like a VFX so what you want to
  53. 2:04do is click on it and duplicate it just
  54. 2:07in case you mess something up because
  55. 2:08you know
  56. 2:09that happened
  57. 2:10[Applause]
  58. 2:10[Music]
  59. 2:20but if you need to do click on the
  60. 2:22original and then now you can apply the
  61. 2:24modifiers and if something goes wrong
  62. 2:26later you can always just go back to the
  63. 2:27one that has no modifiers so go to the
  64. 2:30Top If you put go to edit mode and press
  65. 2:33W to switch to Circle select and now
  66. 2:37just circle and delete the parts which
  67. 2:39you want to get rid of and leave the
  68. 2:41parts that you want to keep also make
  69. 2:44sure to click this button right here

  78. 3:05good okay so now what you want to do is
  79. 3:07you want to duplicate it to like how you
  80. 3:09like it so you can just make as many as
